ILM summer styles

The ILM Summer Styles, the third annual date of the International Leather Goods Fair Offenbach from September 27-30, 2003, stands for four attractive fair days around the latest novelties for spring/summer 2004 with bags and leather accessories. The near Christmas business renders this fair an additional interesting aspect for last minute gift ideas ranging from travel, outdoor, sports and school items to business or small leather goods articles. The representative variety of the most fashionable offers presented at the ILM Summer Styles guarantees all prerequisites for the specialised buyers of fashionable bags and leather accessories for a professional and timely start into the new order round for spring/summer. At this seasonal date for top-fashionable leather accessories, over 200 exhibitors from inland and abroad will display their latest model ideas for the coming sales season. More than 4,000 trade visitors from the leathergoods trade, the shoe- and clothing trade and from other trade branches offering fashionable leathergoods are expected to come. More colour and playful details, much emotion and imagination lets summer 2004 be a fascinating experience. In the centre of the fair are the top trends of bag fashion that will be shown at the ILM Summer Styles under the guidelines 'Urban Sports', 'Retro', and 'Souvenir'. Sport is furthermore a key word and gets a new impulse by a surprising selection of material and colour and by new styling ideas. The topic 'Retro' is interpreted from a new point of view. Feminine fourties, naïve fifties, modern sixties, and power eighties are put on scene anew. The wanderlust brings along fashionable souvenirs from all areas in this world. Ideas come from the Caribbean, Java and Hawaii, Brazil and the tropical rain forest, China and Japan. Fashion presents itself in an exotic, imaginative, seductive, and mysterious way. Exhibited are the latest bag collections of international lifestyle and designer labels as well as strong brands of young fashion. Other focal offers are the new trend collections of small leathergoods, travel- and leisure time bags, business- and school articles, umbrellas, gloves, belts and other fashion accessories.
